Note: The baseline period is $t-1$ (one week prior to the event of interest). The dependent variable is the number of helpline calls per 100,000 population. Population-weighted estimates include province and week-year fixed effects. Young victims are aged 28 or less. Beating/hitting includes any type of beating, hitting, pushing from heights and strangling. Standard errors are clustered at province level. *** p $<$ 0.01, ** p $<$ 0.05, * p $<$ 0.1.
